【How demographic trends impact Tokyo’s residential market】 A popular wisdom is that Japan’s population is aging and declining. Therefore, the value of residential properties may go down because of less demand. But one big exception from this thinking is Tokyo. Its population is growing mainly because of urbanization and of a rising number of young immigrants settling in the capital. In a recent report, Savills revealed that Tokyo 23W’s population has grown from 9.6 million in May 2019 to 9.9 million in May 2024, writes the magazine Real Estate Asia. In addition, foreign nationals have grown to become an integral component of this population growth. In January 2019, there were around 550,000 foreign nationals in Tokyo prefecture or 4.0% of the population, which has grown to almost 650,000 in January 2024, comprising 4.6% of the population. https://lnkd.in/gH4rZWDH

Larger cities are less impacted by population changes compared to smaller towns, where even a small decrease in population can have significant effects on the local economy and real estate market. Some regions, especially in places like Japan, are experiencing a trend where young people are not moving to or staying in certain areas, potentially leading to long-term economic challenges.

Which Country Has the Most Billionaires in 2024? Some cities seem to attract the rich. Take New York City for example, which has 340,000 high-net-worth residents with investable assets of more than $1 million. But there’s a vast difference between being a millionaire and a billionaire. So where do the richest of them all live? Using data from the Hurun Global Rich List 2024, we rank the top 20 cities with the highest number of billionaires in 2024. A caveat to these rich lists: sources often vary on figures and exact rankings. For example, in last year’s reports, Forbes had New York as the city with the most billionaires, while the Hurun Global Rich List placed Beijing at the top spot. Ranked: Top 20 Cities with the Most Billionaires in 2024 The Chinese economy’s doldrums over the course of the past year have affected its ultra-wealthy residents in key cities. Beijing, the city with the most billionaires in 2023, has not only ceded its spot to New York, but has dropped to #4, overtaken by London and Mumbai. In fact all Chinese cities on the top 20 list have lost billionaires between 2023–24. Consequently, they’ve all lost ranking spots as well, with Hangzhou seeing the biggest slide (-5) in the top 20. Where China lost, all other Asian cities—except Seoul—in the top 20 have gained ranks. Indian cities lead the way, with New Delhi (+6) and Mumbai (+3) having climbed the most. At a country level, China and the U.S combine to make up half of the cities in the top 20. They are also home to about half of the world’s 3,200 billionaire population.

Japan's housing market is facing a critical issue with a record high of 9 million vacant homes, accounting for 13.8% of the total housing stock. This surge in empty properties is a significant increase from the previous survey in 2018 and a doubling from 1993 figures. The rise in vacant homes, particularly those without a specific purpose, is attributed to factors such as the passing away of elderly individuals who lived alone or the transition of seniors into care facilities. This trend highlights broader demographic shifts and societal changes impacting Japan's housing market, posing challenges for policymakers and stakeholders tasked with addressing housing shortages and urban development issues. The increase in vacant homes not only affects the housing market but also has implications for the overall economy and society. To address this issue, Japan's government and stakeholders must develop effective strategies to repurpose and utilize these vacant homes, considering options such as renovation, rental, or sale. By tackling this challenge, Japan can create a more sustainable and efficient housing market, addressing the needs of its changing population and promoting a healthier and more vibrant society. . . . #japan #vacant #population #housingmarket #urbandevelopment #demographics #sustainability #tribunetrends

History of nations is fascinating. Japan was an interesting mention across Jared Diamond's books - from Meiji restoration to world war to productivity to ageing/declining population and more. #canada found a mention in Jared Diamond's book around immigration and how it was doing it right. He explained in simple maths how immigration was the way to plug the gap left by declining birthrates and ageing population in developed countries. And how some countries were calling on women to have more babies. In that light it's fascinating why immigration to developed countries is made harder and post immigration settlement can be an ordeal in itself. Labour is important and is a core factor of production to grow the economy. Land, labour, technology and investment are core factors of production that drive the economy. If land (area, minerals etc) don't change much, labour is declining, then technology and investment have to drive up productivity. Beyond that working hours might also need to be longer, if your labour is ageing beyond retirement and a part of the population is kept away from work to take care of family. Would more immigration solve it? I don't know. I am just happy to make some sense of our complicated world. It was a dream to work in #japan one day.

Migration is the movement of people from one place to another, often driven by economic, social, political, or environmental factors. It has shaped societies throughout history, bringing diverse cultures together and influencing economies and demographics. While migration can offer opportunities for better lives, it also presents challenges such as integration, resource allocation, and social cohesion. Understanding and managing migration is crucial in creating inclusive and resilient communities. Some of you just want to Japan to another country whereas you've not changed your country with your intelligence and you give your inbuilt Wonderful knowledge to other countries to make us of your knowledge and they make goods and services and sell to us, and we'll still buy those goods in higher prices.

Elena Wang and Nina Chen point out the growing trend of consumption in China's lower-tier cities, marked by young urbanites' migration to suburban areas and the penetration of brands like Lululemon. Highlighting the contrast between the skyrocketing property prices in metropolitan areas and the more reasonable costof spacious villas in lower-tier cities, the article illustrates a significant change in living preferences. Living costs in China'smajor cities remain high; for example, in Beijing, the monthly rent for an 85 m² apartment in an expensive area can reach 16,084 CNY (2,252 USD).Conversely, the income gap between rural and urban areas has narrowed, as evidenced by the growth rate of percapita disposable income in rural regions generally surpassing that ofurban dwellers, indicating a potential shift in economic balance and opportunity. Moreover, it details how global brands are expanding into these emerging markets, tapping into a new consumer base with evolving preferences and increasing purchasing power. Through compelling anecdotes and robust data analysis, Elena and Nina uncover the story of China's shifting economic landscape, where lower-tier cities are not just catching up but are growing with more opportunities in the consumersector.

The world's population is expected to peak over the next 50 years, with the 5 out of 6 largest populations set to increase. Interestingly, China is projected to experience a significant decrease in population by 2075. These changes will have a significant impact on the world's economy, environment, and society. #world #population Visual Capitalist
